Marv, 
Thanks for the info.  My F-16 Pit is coming along nicely, have to borrow  a digital camera and post some pictures for the guys.

Wire size should be based on mechanical requirements. There is 
essentially no current in the circuit, so use what ever is robust for 
the application.

Ribbon wire (available at Radio Shack) with an IDE style connector (like 
the data cable on a disk drive) is fine. Keep leads short as possible 
and keep them away from things that might cause electromagnetic 
interference. Use shielded wire if necessary, but I doubt that you will 
need to go that far.
